DITTOES! <wave> The third one is the bee's knees for me! LOL
In the first two, the white was really overpowering, and since I am PigPen personified, white is anathema to my senses ... maybe on the first one, which is an attractive pattern, you could make the white less prominent by making it smaller and enlarging the colored sections?

Well, now that I have read the whole thread <g> I have to DITTO fireworkslover! All of the colors seem balanced to me ... and less white (very good) <g> After looking at all the choices, I am almost speechless about which might be the "best", but I sure do like the last choice! <wave>

Which one do you like better and why?
Thanks!

Would you be interested in looking at another pattern? I just downloaded a few free quilt patterns, one of which is black, white, and red? Let me know and if so, I will see if I can send it as an attachment. I've never done that before, so don't know if I can.

I love the Monkey Wrench or Snail's Trails. It is one of my favourite patterns, has lots of movement and in black, white and red would be a great quilt.

First, I have to ask what the intended use is for this quilt?
Throw?
Wall Hanging?
Bed?
Donation?
Etc.

I rather like the traditional log cabin, but I like the snails too. Not much help here, huh?

I want to make it for my best friend (neighbor). Just to cuddle up with, on her side of the bed.
